Ya think it's easy?

“Someday soon you may get to talk to your children from behind bars. How much worse to have put them there…”

Continuing his quest to be real estate’s leading champion of the forthcoming anti-Ant genocide, Redfin’s Glenn Kelman yesterday jumped onto the pandering-to-aggrieved-Asians boxcar bandwagon. As I’ve pointed out before, racism is a terrible idea for both Asians and Redfin, none of whom have any excuse for their dalliances with bigotry.

This was my instant reaction to Kelman’s newest anti-Ant admonition:

“We stood with Black Americans against violence then; now we stand with Asians and Pacific Islanders.” –Glenn Kelman, #Redfin.

Hey, Glenn, since you’re up on all the latest bigotry stats: Who is it who persecutes Asians, most often?

Who gains when Asian students or job applicants get screwed?

Hiring the wrong people is obviously bad for business, but do you really think this abject racist pandermania works as marketing? Is there no one else in your life to condemn your deeply earnest bigotry? No one, even, to measure the substandard results?

Fun to think that there is no way for you to talk about anti-Asian racism without admitting who are the worst racists in America, but I doubt any of this will keep Asians, Jews or other competent people out of the boxcars.

I know you had an education, so you cannot claim you don’t know where your racist policies lead. Are you a grown-up, Glenn Kelman, or just another corporate clown?

Glenn Kelman has posting privileges here, but, here or anywhere, I challenge him to defend his racism not to me, not to his shareholders or clients, but to his sons, who someday will face the artificial barriers to success he is erecting – unless they have by then already fallen prey to the anti-Ant pogrom.
